Remarkable work! Novel prognostic marker in prostrate cancer
Congrats @laurasenamd for publishing the definitive study on IDH1-altered prostate cancers. This is a distinct molecular subtype of PCa with novel therapeutic implications (vorasidenib?). @neerajaiims @VanAllenLab @nikolausschultz europeanurology.com/action/s…

Congrats for bringing this forward. @tompowles1 Very attractive regimen to limit the EV therapy.
JUST IN: VOLGA Phase III is ( )=>Neoadjuvant Durva EV and adjuvant Durva alone showed EFS & OS benefit. The shorter period of EV is a very attractive option! @DanaFarber_GU @OncoAlert @OncBrothers @AstraZeneca @tompowles1 @AUC3_Official

DAY Two of OncoAlert 🚨 Coverage of #IKCSEU26 Provider Perceptions of Cure in Renal Cell Cancer Presented by Ms. Dena BattleπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ of @kcCURE RCC specialists demonstrate notable hesitancy in using the term β€œcure,” even in clinical contexts where long-term outcomes may justify it. This reluctance reflects not only clinical uncertainty but also parallels similar reservations among patients. The absence of a standardized definition contributes to inconsistent communication, potentially affecting expectations and decision-making. Establishing clearer, consensus-driven terminology around β€œcure” in RCC could enhance transparency, improve physician–patient alignment, and support more informed shared decision-making. Addressing this linguistic and conceptual gap may ultimately strengthen trust and facilitate more meaningful discussions about prognosis and treatment goals in renal cell carcinoma care. #KidneyCancer @KidneyCancer Jean-Christophe Bernhard @univbordeaux @AlbigesL @gustaveroussy @TiansterZhang @Dr_SabyGeorge @ZakhariaYousef @ERPlimackMD @Ric_Campi @DrIacovelli @RebuzziSara @weoncologists @GEVaughan1 @salvolarosa @DrYukselUrun #KidneyCancer @daniyal_jafree @EJonasch @IKCCorg @sophiemerrick1 @BarbaraJereczek @ESTRO_RT @ZakhariaYousef @kuraoncology @Selcuk__Erdem @drulkav @RCCadvocate

Pls activate Swog 2419 the BIOFRONT trial. First large randomized trial testing combo of probiotic with immune therapy ( Ipi and nivo or Cabo and nivo or Len and pembro) in Frontline RCC @ esfeller
Replying to @LauraEsfeller
Finally, a clinical trial I’ve been working on for 2 years w/ @PBarataMD @drulkav @montypal @BrianShuch & many others @SWOG opens for enrollment very, very soon, and I couldn’t be more excited. S2419 (BIOFRONT) will be the first SWOG trial and the first phase III trial anywhere
